If the disposition is ratedas an enabler, for these individuals it will be an asset that helps with job performance and development. If it is rated as alimiter, for these individuals the disposition could create performance and development challenges. However, someindividuals with limiter tendencies may have learned to manage them so that they do not affect their performance or others'perceptions of them.
